has anyone else been having trouble with their bose dashboard speakers? I'm not sure if my center front speaker is blown or if it just can't handle any bass. The super low bass sounds fine but the mid level bass sounds quite crappy. taking it in on friday, but was wondering if anyone else has had this problem.

Do you still have your stock deck? I don't remember my center speaker ever sounding too great with the stock system. Now that I have my Avic D3, I simly setup the eq and built in crossovers to decrease the low frequencies going to the front speakers. This helps out tremendously, and its for this reason that I haven't taken out any of my interior speakers yet!

yep, i still have the stock deck w/o nav. Those speakers are horribly located because they are mids and it's a bad location for any vibration caused by bass. Dash boards aren't really known for being all that solid. Maybe a e.q. in the glove box wouldn't be a bad idea, but i'm not looking to upgrade my deck until i get my exhaust installed, and purchase wheels, and a spoiler.any other location sugestions on where to install a equalizer?

I did not think the dash speakers (neither the tweeters nor the mid speaker) are designed for bass. I thought the mid speaker was designed just like in a home theater, to project the voice or mid to high ranges.
